    Not cleaning

    Posting this to not add to the off-topic nature of the the recent chamber dimension thread. For those who have extensively experimented with not cleaning their bores, what do you do with moisture exposure from field conditions or high humidity? Let rust go and shoot it out?

    Small calibers and copper (Barnes etc)

    I use copper bullets, and am looking to downsize. How small of caliber/cartridge does the small caliber crowd feel comfortable going on non fragmenting monolithic pills for deer /black bear ? Please don’t tell me lead is better, TMK or bust. I get it, there’s a 5k post thread covering that.

    Sold New Marlin 1895 trapper or SBL

    Long story but I have arriving in the next week both a new Ruger made Marlin SBL and trapper models, but only will be keeping one depending on what I like better. I would let one of them go for my cost $1460 for the SBL or $1400 for the trapper. Again , NIB/ unfired. Looks like the SBLs...

    Porky rifle wanted

    In the market for a stainless rifle with a good stiff stock, trigger that can be made good, that isn’t ported and comes in at around 7 lbs without optics… I still hunt and a heavy rifle (which 7 lbs ain’t really) holds steadier offhand than a featherweight. Ideas under $2k? Don’t care for...

    What FL to buy

    Received a $240 gift card from First Lite instead of a cash refund. Good on base layers. What else is worth the $ out of their stuff.

    Barriers or worries related to hunting

    Went down the rabbit hole of reading some random threads on wildlife, land, and permit management in the west that get people worked up (y’all really don’t like predators) or worried about this passion. It got me thinking what concerns me about long term trends where I hunt, which is northern...

    Win 70 EW Accuracy

    Mentioned in a 30-06 thread that I bought a Winchester 70 Extreme Weather SS in ‘06 last year and have been really disappointed in accuracy. I’d say I’m looking at ~ 2-3 MOA with a handful of factory loads with really bad vertical stringing. I’m having trouble walking away from this one as...

    Seek outside stove jack size

    Anyone run larger (5 inch) stove pipe in one of the larger Seek Outside Tipis? I’m considering a 16 man for a hangout shelter while winter truck camping, so would like to use a bigger stove (kni-co, 4 dog etc) that utilize 5 inch pipe. Looks like you’d cut the slits in the stove jack larger...

    Tent construction and ease of heating.

    Ordered an Arctic Oven igloo along with a nu-way vented propane stove on Friday for my deer camp in MN and WI. Can get cold at night, especially during the later Wi season. All reviews I can find indicate The Nu-Way should be plenty to heat the AO and will run all night Fast forward to the...

    Pomoly hot tents

    Ran across this in a google search for hot tent. Can’t find any reviews. Has anyone given one a try? See they have a canvas blend which is interesting. Certainly not lightweight, but looks to be the only cheap canvas option I have seen other than a DIY stove jack in a Kodiak

    Arctic Oven 10 vs Igloo

    Planning on purchasing an Arctic Oven 10 or Igloo for a 1-2 man camp for deer hunting in MN and WI. This will be car camping, so weight is not an issue. I will be setting it up/ taking it down every weekend for a month, and potentially a few more times in between depending on work schedule...
